Why each option
FortiGate offers multiple methods for sending One Time Passwords (OTPs) to users for Two-Factor Authentication, including dedicated hardware and software tokens, and email delivery.
Hardware FortiToken devices are physical tokens that generate time-based OTPs which users enter for authentication.
A web portal is typically an interface for user login where an OTP might be entered, but it is not a method for FortiGate to *send* an OTP to the user.
FortiGate can be configured to send OTPs to users' registered email addresses, allowing them to retrieve the code for authentication.
While a USB token can be a form of hardware security key, FortiGate's proprietary OTP system primarily supports FortiToken hardware and software, not generic USB tokens for OTP generation.
Software FortiToken (FortiToken Mobile) is a mobile application that generates OTPs on a user's smartphone or tablet.
